A statement from Zachary James Miller, Chair of the Global Black Caucus of Democrats Abroad, on Louisiana v. Callais, voting rights, and the urgent role of Americans abroad.
**
Voting rights are under attack, and Americans abroad have a role to play.
In his statement on Louisiana v. Callais, Zachary James Miller, Chair of the Global Black Caucus of Democrats Abroad, names the danger clearly. The weakening of the Voting Rights Act is not abstract. It affects representation, Black political power, multiracial democracy, and the future of fair elections in the United States.
For Americans living abroad, this moment matters deeply. Our distance does not remove us from the fight. Our votes still count. Our voices still matter. Our organizing still has power.
As Zach reminds us, overseas voters cannot be gerrymandered. That makes our participation even more important in close races. We invite every American abroad to read the full statement, share it, request your ballot, and help others do the same.
